What is it?

It’s only the biggest, baddest, hairiest running series on the planet. NBD. It’s a mustache-themed run that’s a little bit Freddie Mercury and a little bit Ron Swanson. It’s a fundraiser for men’s health and it’s the best excuse you’re going to find this side of 1976 to grow a mustache.

The Course

Kid’s Run

Back for a second year is the kid’s dache! Bring your little munchkins and set them loose (not literally). The kid’s dache is for kids 12 & under and costs $20 to enter. The course will be short enough for all kiddos to reasonably finish.

The Shirt

Get ready to dial up your style about three notches once you feast your eyes on the 2015 Mustache Dache shirt. It’s a gender-specific, super-soft piece of sweet shirt style. In other words, you’ll probably like it.

Please note that shirts can only be picked up in person at packet pickup or race day. We do not mail out shirts afterwards or hold them. No exceptions!

The Medal

All participants, including participants in the Kid’s Dache, receive a finisher’s medal! YAY! It’s not ready yet, but when it is, you can bet your socks that we’ll post a preview right here.

The Photos

New for 2016, Gameface Media will be providing professional photography at all Mustache Dache events. Photos will be made available to participants within five, count ’em FIVE business days of the event. Photos will be searchable by bib (so make sure that yours is visible!) and participants may download as many photos as their little mustache-y heart desires. Mustache Dache participants will be notified via email when photos are ready.

Schedule

What to Bring

–>A mustache!

–>Running shoes

–>Running clothes

–>Fresh and styling costume

–>Photo ID

–>Cash or credit card for merchandise

–>A healthy sense of irreverence

What not to bring….our four legged canine friends, aka Canis lupus familiaris, the dog. Unfortunately, the insurance we use for the Mustache Dache™ does not allow for dogs to participate in the run. However, dogs are welcome to come and spectate!

Prizes and Whatnot

As the ancient Greeks, we elect to recognize the fleetest of foot amongst our rapscallion hordes. Prizes will be given to the top 3 finishers in the following age groups:

No Mustache Growers (12 & Under)

Angst-filled (13-17)

“Mature” (18-39)

Mid-Life Crisis (40-59)

AARPwesome (60+)

We will also recognize the best costumes that display the finest in sartorial harmony, and finally, we will recognize the teams with the best “team spirit”, which is a completely subjective and utterly biased judgement by East German Olympic judges from the ’88 Olympics. And of course, the best mustaches will be recognized as well!

Refund Policy

Due to the upfront nature of event costs, we have a uniform policy of no refunds, transfers or deferrals to a future year. We know that plans change and unexpected things come up, but we feel it is most fair to apply a uniform policy to all, instead of an arbitrary line of who merits a refund and who doesn’t. Thank you for your understanding.

What is the Mustache Dache?

The Mustache Dache™ is the world's biggest and baddest mustache-themed running series! Men, women and children are all invited to sport a 'stache and participate in this slightly irreverent 5k. Taking place during the month of November, the national series benefits a variety of men's health causes around the country. All participants receive a t-shirt, mustache finisher’s medal and free professional photo downloads, plus access to the post-race festivities, with photo booth, costume contest, food, and plenty more.
